As part of the traditional screening of Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life, the University of North Carolina Wilmington is searching for an angel in disguise to be the next recipient of the Clarence Award, named after the angel-in-training in the classic holiday film. The fourth annual award will be presented at UNC Wilmington's It's a Wonderful Life screening at 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 13 in Kenan Auditorium.
The Clarence Award recognizes an individual in the greater Wilmington community who, without fanfare, gives unselfishly to others in order to make a difference in the lives of those in need. The recipient must be present to receive the award and must agree to be photographed and publicly recognized via news media. The honoree and their cause will receive recognition, but no cash prize will be awarded.
L.C. "Johnny" Johnson, director of the non-profit agency First in Families (FiF) of Southeastern North Carolina received the 2008 Clarence Award.
A nomination form is available online at http://www.uncw.edu/filmstudies/events/wonderful-life.html. A form can also be requested by contacting Pat Torok, film studies, at 910.962.7502, or torokp@uncw.edu . Nominations must be received by 5 p.m., Friday, Nov. 20 for consideration.
